Shivan

Shivan is a lightweight download manager that have been written in python 🐍. Shivan supports multi-part downloading method.

Getting Started

1. Configuring

you can configure Shivan in two terms :

1. where to save file after Shivan downloads the file
2. how much Shivan must split file ( in range 1-8 parts)

To configure enter:

$ python3 main.py --config

Tip: Configuration steps will ask 2 questions and if you hit enter and leave it empty in any of step , it acts in:

1. if step 1 leaved blank : save file in root of project
2. if step 2 leaved blank : split file in 8 parts

2. Usage

2.1. Install Requirements

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

2.2. Run-up

$ python3 main.py <url>

Contribution
